( hope it's ok to send multiple in one ask! )
Celebrating Disability Aids Because…
Our shower chair makes it where I don't have the pain of going all the way down into the tub when I need to sit during a shower!
I have an AAC app on my tablet for when we struggle with communication! And I can easily use my phone's notes app too if I don't have our tablet. Whether because of being overwhelmed or having a moment of selective mutism!
We have multiple knee braces and general wrap bandages for different types / amounts of pain!
Just regular headphones help muffle everyday sounds when our sensitivity is acting up!
Fidgets help me focus on something else when I'm anxious!
Sensory / tactile stickers help us calm down when stressed or overwhelmed!
Discord statuses help easily tell our friends who's fronting and how we're feeling!
Yes, you can send multiple in one ask! Thank you for sharing all of these!
It's great to see you've found so many aids to help you live your best life!

For Disability Pride Month I asked the community to send in little submissions sharing what you love about your aids and how they improve your life. I'll be posting the asks individually like this but I'll also collect them into one big post (or a few, depending on how many I receive) closer to the end of the month. If you'd like to join in, send an ask/submission or add a comment here ✌️
